Circus Harmony: Legato

For their 2018 performance Legato, the young performers of Circus Harmony will pay tribute to American circus history from 1920 to 2010. Of special interest is their homage to the Bronx King Charles Troupe, the acrobatic unicycle/basketball act that appeared on dozens of TV shows in the 1970s. Longtime troupe member Kip Jones came to St. Louis to teach the students the tricks of his trade back in November, and now the kids get to show off what they've been practicing. Legato takes place at 2 and 7 p.m. Saturday and 2 p.m. Sunday (January 13 to 21) at the City Museum (750 North16th Street; www.circusharmony.org). Tickets are $20.
